- The rage system adds some nice flexibility in how you use an otherwise fairly limited ability pool.
- Huge plus for having a WASD control option. Although the implementation wasn’t great, it made the combat significantly more comfortable.
- I wish the rage system power-ups were a bit more creative. Most of then just amplified the inherent properties of the ability, like more damage or a larger area of effect.
- Severe issues with crashes every 30 minutes or so.
- The slow health loss/gain animation of the HP bar made it impossible to see how much HP you had in the middle of a fight. The HP bar could indicate 50% but because it was still “animating” it could in reality be at 10%. This made it hopeless to time health potion use as you didn’t actually know how much HP you had.
Decent ARPG that didn’t overstay its welcome. Huge plus for having a WASD control option.
This game has incredible atmosphere. It feels like Van Helsing. The humor between the ghost and Van Helsing is very cool. The hidden joke quests are great. Also what was great for imergion was that if you killed something it stayed dead, you didn’t have to clear the rooms over and over again. If you wanted though, you could go only to menu and opt in for it.
Things which I didn’t like was that many enemies seemed like just putted there, it was weird they are there. Kind of out of place. There was definitely a lot of mindless killing and yes, dying, because as Van Helsing style play (gun, sword) the ghost isn’t a good tank for you so you will definitely tank a lot and also kite like a madman.
The last boss was decent. It was definitely good looking. As for the story it decent. Graphicly I liked the art style.
I think it was good experience and great atmosphere.
6/10 – Fair
This is a hard one to judge.
I purchased this on the release day with the sole purpose of playing coop with a friend, but that failed miserably as the net-code of the game was severely broken and it was unplayable @ multiplayer.
So, I forgot about this game for half a year and just now realised that I haven’t played it yet, so I gave it a try.
This is a classic hack-n-slash, let’s break it down to points a little bit.
pros:
-Good setting, steampunk, mad scientists, vampires, monsters. All that good stuff.
-Gameplay feels solid. UI is good, mechanics are there and do not fall apart.
-Katarina =)
cons:
-Out of 3 classes of heroes – 2 are locked away in DLC. That’s just a dick move really.
-Simplicity of it’s core. Zero build diversity, while you have to appoint attributes and skills – it’s pretty much useless, you might as well had them auto-allocated. Action is not as good and diverse as in Diablo 3, systems behind the game are not as deep and complex as in Path of Exile.
I will definitely finish the game, because it grabbed me in some way, but I really couldn’t recommend to buy this game, as it seems like a easily skippable one.
